Hapalochlaena lunulata

I do not know whether I am overworking myself, or whether I just have too much motivation but that my body cannot keep up. But I do think that my body can keep up.

Yesterday was the first quiz for my teaching assistant class. 10 points multiple choice. It was very easy to grade. I had the first seven letters of the alphabet, so everyone whose last name begins from A to G is going to be graded by me.

Someone in my office told me to slow down.

I looked like an octopus shuffling and alphabetizing papers.

Am I abnormal? I like pressure, I like deadlines, and I get depressed when it is vacation time and I am just bumming around.

On a different note, I received another voice message from my parents, saying they will leave Vienna around three weeks from now. So I guess that means it is indeed definite.

I need to find a new house. I am planning to move off-campus for next year. I was trying to get a different unit within campus, one with a lesser rent, but I wasn't able to get it. So I will try to get an off-campus housing before I go for vacation, something that is less expensive, so when I come back in August, it will be ready.

I also need to renew my I-20, so I can re-enter the United States after my vacation.

I also need to file my income tax return.

I also need to conduct three more experiments tomorrow.

I also need to read a paper that was suggested reading for my SynSem Lab.
